Patient's question:
The child is around 5 years old. Recently, for some unknown reason, they frequently complain of leg pain. I was wondering if it's a good idea for the child to have a comminuted fracture of the arm treated with steel pins.Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, this situation is generally considered to have little impact, so it is recommended not to worry for the time being and to wait and see. It is best to have surgery at a regular hospital, and regular follow-up checks are sufficient. Surgical treatment options include osteotomy, bone grafting, and artificial femoral head replacement, among others. Rest is important, and you should supplement with calcium by eating foods rich in calcium, such as milk, dairy products, sheep liver, pork liver, shrimp skin, beans, seaweed, and eggs, etc.
